2020 BMW X6 | Cover Your Eyes

[@gplusgplus2286]

The first X6 was an unexpected success and bmw moneymaker and you should have included that bit of history. Despite the motoring press bashing it, people were buying it like crazy. Target groups were the soccer milf, the rich kids in Dubai or the pro athlete who scored his first contract. And others are now imitating it, eg Merc GLC Coupe, so in my book its been a success.

BMW depreciation is as legendary as their old NA straight sixes. The unfortunate thing is that this thing will cost a bundle to keep running. Every BMW I've had required frequent preventive maintenance to stay reliable. They used to be dedicated to driving enthusiasts. Now, apart from an M car, enthusiasts must look elsewhere, and frankly the new M cars are really only about the engine/drivetrain. Damn fine engines, though.

[@jamisonz3365]

I've always seen people talk shit and hate on the X6 and X6M. But you can't deny it's a huge succes. At first they don't give a shit, now the truth is every luxury and performance manufacturers are doing the Coupe SUVs. The first follower is the last gen GLE63s coupe which is a true beast just like the X6M. And after that came the Cayenne turbo coupe, the Urus and the not that coupe 'RsQ8'. You can't deny X5M, the normal GLE63S and the Cayenne turbo are a little bit too boring for some customers. Not everyone wants a real two door coupe or a supercar. Or you would assume thay the X6M buyers already had some supercar and real practical vehicles. The X6M really feels more gangster than any other BMWs.

[@gtcoffman]

The rear taillights are actually unique. When they make all that high style marketing material this actually looks the part. Abstract, yes. Pleasing to everyone, no. The equivalent X5 looks like a Grand Cherokee from the rear. Sure its less practical but you won't see them all over the place and the belt line in the rear is so high it looks intimidating compared to your standard SUV.

My wife drives a 2017 X6, and she loves it. It has one of the high end interior packages (the cool kids refer to it as peanut butter guts). Very nice inside, rides great, good power. We can fold down the rear seats and throw in our 2 Oru kayaks and head out for a day paddling, which you cannot do in a sedan or coupe. We drove it from California to Florida towing a 16 foot enclosed trailer with our racecar inside in total comfort. We have bombed through Angels Crest Forest in it and had a great time, despite it's weight and size. Is the rear seat and cargo space compromised for the styling? Without a doubt. I have sat back there in comfort for long durations and I am 5'11", but anyone taller would start to complain. My wife doesn't like the look of the X5, so this is a great compromise. She gets a car she loves, and lets me borrow it to tow the racecar to the track on some weekends and haul our kayaks around on the others. Is BMW slicing the pie thinner and thinner with all the X models? Absolutely. They wouldn't be doing the X6 for another generation if it wasn't profitable. To each their own! My daily is a 2019 Miata, but I can still appreciate the X6 for what it is. Keep up the great videos!

[@jackholmes8105]

Other than the reservations i have with the styling. It is genuinely the best value in the premium suv segment. It also has the best drivetrain sub the porsche which is far and away the most expensive in the segment.

I don't really understand the continual ugly comments. It is just a more coupe looking SUV.

We can determine on our own if we like the looks or not. We don't need you to say over and over again how you don't like what it looks like.

[@zaitcev0]

The X6 is basically a properly proportioned sedan, like we used to have in the 1940s. But we became used to the squished cars in the 1960s and that stupid trend became the norm. The only demerit that I see is that X6 is a liftback. But then KIA Stinger is like that too, and it gets a pass from the media. Nobody who complains about the CUV trend and prefers sedans has any right to complain about X6, then.

Here's the people who are going to buy this thing: people like my wife. When they're at a dealership (meaning they know they want a certain brand), they're trying all the different cars out. Coupe/sedans sit too low and SUVs are unwieldy and clumsy to drive in tight spaces due to how tall they sit. The coupe-like SUV comes in and solves both of those problems: an elevated seating position without the clumsiness and lack-of-confidence from lumbering around in a mid-size (or even some compact) SUVs. This is what my wife told me when she picked the Honda HR-V 4 years ago. She picked it over the Civic and the CRV for those exact reasons. She just started driving a Hyundai Santa Fe. She loves the car, other than one sticking point: the thing doesn't give you any confidence in physically tight situations. Fitting in a tight parking spot, driving down a tight back road, etc. She's getting used to it, but more and more people are looking up in the size/ride height department. The coupe-like SUV is the entry point from sedans to something more practical, without having to make the jump into a mid- or full-size SUV.

There is a demographic that's beyond having a family to move around and no longer needs the Costco runs and we are back to wanting a more sporty drive which these 'SAV's are filling that niche. I own a 2013 X5 diesel and also an 2022 X2 XDrive 28i. Both are great at what they are designed for but I get more enjoyement behind the wheel of the X2.
